Graham Parker and The Rumour are back with a brand new single and video for 'Railroad Spikes'. Watch the lyric video exclusively on Gigwise below.
The cult rock band, best known for their incendiary blend of pre-punk, for influencing Bruce Springsteen and appearing in Judd Apatow's This Is 40, have shared the swinging new track ahead of the release of new album Mystery Glue. A rough and ready slice of rollicking rock and roll fun, the new track looks set to please fans old and new.
Springteen once said of Parker's songwriting: "Graham’s music was always aggressive sounding because of his voice. He always had that caustic attitude that he balanced with tremendous soul and warmth so it was a beautiful combination of things. There was a hint of a chip on his shoulder but when you got underneath it, there was Fools Gold, Black Honey, these things were just filled with such soul and such beauty there was a beautiful tension between those things.”
